Ron, I need a favour. If I give you something to keep in your trunk until next week, do you promise to keep it there and not give it back to me even if I ask for it?
Of course it's not cursed! I wouldn't give it to you if it were cursed. It's not food, either. It's a book, and you've ALREADY refused to read the first two, so I don't think you'll be tempted!
One of my friends from Pure Sparkle sent me a copy of Pure Victory EARLY. And I want to read it so badly! But Honoria won't be getting her copy until next week when it comes out properly and I don't want to be the ONLY person who knows what happens and not be able to talk to ANYONE about it!!
So I'm going to give it to you NOW before I change my mind. You can put it away and not give it back to me until everyone else gets theirs.
Pretty dramatic picture on the cover of it, I've gotta say. Is there going to be much shagging in it, do you think? Only, the characters look well fit. And like they're thinking about shagging as much as fighting.
I mean seriously, that weapon the hero's holding? Think about it.
Well of course they're well fit. AND they've been looking at each other longingly for the last two books, although I couldn't tell from the picture whether that was definitely Phoebus or definitely Efrain. I mean obviously she's going to have to choose between them. There have been all sorts of hints that Efrain will die heroically (unless Amaranth dies heroically! but I don't THINK the author will kill off the protagonist and neither does Honoria!) And if he does, I guess she'll end up with Phoebus.
(There's also this other girl Agrona who's in love with Efrain but she doesn't deserve him, not after what happened at the end of Pure Power.)
Anyway it's not going to be JUST shagging, they have to overthrow the unjust government!
I wish I'd looked harder at the cover. Can you look and tell me whether the boy on the front has a pierced ear? Can you tell? Also is he wearing a little pin of a snake, or not?
Amaranth and Efrain really DESERVE each other. Phoebus, well, maybe HE could end up with Agrona if he doesn't die? Because it's not that he shouldn't be happy at the end (he should!) but well he's not as interesting as Efrain.
Sally Anne says you won't let her read it. And there are loads of other people hoping she'll pry it away from you. The twins would tell you to charge 6 sickles a minute for peeking at it, but I say good on you for not getting people queued up for it. The line might go all the way to Hogsmeade!
Honoria says she hasn't told anybody. Someone might have overheard us talking about it, who even knows. I swear it seems sometimes like walls have eyes and ears, the way rumours spread.
At least it's not Umbridge spying on everybody this year. I mean, I was seriously convinced she had the portraits and the armour telling her everything we said.

Otherwise, sure.

I can do that!
